The Angry Corrie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Angry Corrie is a fanzine for hillwalkers in Scotland, first published in 1991. It is print-based and was also published on the web until June 2008. The fanzine is published quarterly.[1]

The Angry Corrie tends to steer away from the more prosaic descriptions of hill routes or gear reviews, and accepts no advertising. Driven mainly by its unpaid contributors, it has a reputation for pursuing eccentric subjects with a great deal of reader participation.

Its editor since inception has been Dave Hewitt.[2] Author of Walking the Watershed[3] and A Bit of Grit on Haystacks, Hewitt has dabbled in journalism – most notably as editor of The Scotsman's outdoor pages until a revamp by Andrew Neil.

Grant Hutchison has taken the existing files and created a definitive web archive. See external links
